Are you ready to make the crispiest chicken ever!? Turns out, it’s totally possible to do without frying! I’ve never been a big fan of fried foods. Okay, let me rephrase that. I’ve never been a big fan of making fried foods. I don’t like dodging grease splatters or the smell it leaves in my kitchen. But I do love how fried food is always so crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside!

My solution? Oven frying! So today, I’m sharing a few secrets on how to get the crispiest, juiciest, most flavorful chicken thighs in the oven! There’s really only two things that you need – pickle juice and Argo® Corn Starch!

The secret to making this easy Pickle Brined Oven Fried Chicken Thighs recipe!

Chicken thighs

Some people are fans of fried chicken wings or chicken breasts. But I recommend using chicken thighs to make the crispiest chicken ever. In my opinion, chicken thighs are an underrated cut of poultry. They’re inexpensive, full of flavor, and oh-so juicy!

Pickle juice

I have been missing out on this secret ingredient until recently! If you have leftover pickle juice, don’t toss it! Use it to marinade your chicken instead. The salt in the pickle juice helps tenderize the chicken. And all of those zesty seasonings add a bunch of flavor to the chicken!

Argo® Corn Starch

All I used to coat my chicken was a mixture of Argo® Corn Starch, flour, and seasonings. I popped the chicken in the oven and magic happened! Just look at that glorious, golden, crispy outside!

Argo® Corn Starch helps keeps the coating mixture light and airy (it’s the leading corn starch brand with over 100 years of quality and trust over multiple generations). Once the chicken is cooked, you can just see the crunch that’s about to happen in every bite!Argo® Corn Starch is the secret ingredient you’ve been looking for​!

There are so many other uses for Argo® Corn Starch besides making crispy, oven-fried chicken. It’s a kitchen staple you can use to thicken sauces and soups, add to baking to hold your desserts together, or even use to make slime!

Put all of these secret ingredients together and you’ll be enjoying a whole lot of yum! Serve this oven-fried chicken dish with a side of pickles, Ranch, and slaw or salad!

Make weeknight dinners a breeze to make and clean up with these 20 Sheet Pan Chicken Recipes!

Summer is quickly coming to an end. Soon enough, it’ll be time to get back to work, back to school, and back to busy weekday routines. We’ve spent most of the summer cooking outside on the grill.

Sheet pan meals are perfect for busy weeknights! They’re one pan and done dinners with easy cleanup. Roasting veggies together on the same pan as meat makes a perfectly juicy and flavorful meal. Sheet pan dinners are also great for easy meal prepping at the beginning of the week!

This Hatfield Ham, Asparagus, and Egg Tart is a delicious way to use up Easter leftovers or serve an easy and flavorful, one pan and done spring dish for brunch!

Do you have your Easter plans all set and ready to go? Easter is just a couple weeks away and, while our plans aren’t set in stone just yet, one thing’s for sure – there will be ham on the table! Like most holidays, we split our Easter celebration between both sides of the family. That means, we usually come home with leftovers. That’s my favorite part of any holiday meal!

Since we have two Easter celebrations each year, there’s usually a decent amount of leftovers to freeze or reheat for days after! Leftover ham is always delicious reheated in slices for breakfast with eggs or used in a cheesy calzone for dinner. But this time of year, I’m all about eating seasonally and incorporating the flavors of spring into our meals!

Ham is about to become the star of most Easter tables. But it’s also become a big part of our dinner table, in general. We keep Hatfield Ham Steaks from ACME in the freezer to use as a convenient breakfast, lunch, or dinner option. They’re already fully cooked making mealtime a breeze!

Celebrate the flavors of spring with this easy Hatfield Ham, Asparagus, and Egg Tart!

With Easter coming up, I wanted to use Hatfield Ham Steaks to make a spring-inspired Ham, Asparagus, and Egg Tart. This easy tart is made with a puff pastry crust, homemade dijonnaise, Gruyère cheese, ham, asparagus, and eggs. When I say this tart is easy to make, I mean it! It’s basically a one pan and done dish!

This tart would be perfect to serve for Easter brunch, as an easy springtime dish (think Mother’s Day!), or as a great way to use up those Easter ham leftovers!
